Stained Glass Wreath Cookies

Parchment Paper or Foil

1 16oz tube of sugar cookie dough

1 bag assorted round hard candies (lifesavers recommended)

Optional 1 tube of white decorating icing

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 cookies sheets with parchment paper or foil. Slice dough at 1/4 inch intervals; place 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Press a 1 inch round cookie cutter into the center of each cookie. (a water bottle top works well also.) Remove the smaller circle of dough and replace it with a hard candy. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Place baking sheet on the cooling rack . When cookies have cooled, use icing to decorate. Allow icing to harden then serve, of give a plateful as gifts.
